I think Cook's is the preferred machine shop now that we don't have an "in" at Vilas anymore. But see if Espearo would still recommend them.
Cook's no. Espearo I believe would say no as well. I think that they are the ones who send their stuff to Waco.
At vilas, from everything I have heard, you just have to talk to the right person.
It gets me to wondering if it is worth to take it somewhere like DFW or Houston or whatever town you are from.
I think I am going to stop by bill's speed shop when I am back in Irving and see if he's still around. He used to be big in Mopar Dragsters.
So, best way to purge air from PS pump = jack up front and saw wheel back and forth with engine running?
For the most part, Yes.Quote:

Harbor Freight has some cheap regulators and some tanks (I don't really know if its what I need)
It will pretty much only be used for tire inflation, but it would be cool to have an option of running air tools. (not that I own any, yet.)
to run air tools you need an adjustable pressure regulator. ask creighton about building one on the cheap. or too bad sharpe beat you to buying the one creighton had for sale.
York OBA is cooler. :flipoff2:Quote:

Yes, I also agree York OBA is the way to go if you have a way to easily mount it. But, this is a TJ right? I know Kilby Enterprises makes a TJ bracket kit for doing OBA, but price wise, what you're doing would probably be cheaper depending on what regulator you go with for your tank. Just do what most people in this club do...when you need air, make sure you're within 50ft of Lurch.
Lurch is my OBA!!
Like I said, I don't have the cash to spring for it right now.
I would recomend OBA as well. With that said, I have had all the parts to assemble an OBA system for about 3 years and have yet to actually install any of it, mostly due to the PITA of making a bracket to mount it on my engine. And I just bought a CO2 setup from Creighton :laughing:
If the 2.5L mounting is the same as the 4.0L mounting, the bracket is incredibly easy to make. Just go look at Kilby's design, and make one of your own out of scrap steel...so easy even I could do it. :gigem:
The power steering pumps are in deferent locations on the 2.5 and 4.0L. Also if you don't have air conditioning it would be alot easier to mount. Anyways, the bracket is not hard but the clutches can be expensive. I am just going to turn my AC compressor into an air compressor because the AC is pretty useless in my jeep (it is fun to turn on just because I have it though)
Anways, I scored a great deal on my Regulator. It is not adjustable pressure but I picked it up used at some welding supply around BCS for $15.
Or Lurch can get within 50 feet of you.Quote:

There are a couple of good articles on how to convert your a/c compressor or find a york on some old vehicles on pbb. I know the 'wait and save your money' isn't what you wanted to hear, but it is by far the best advice.
I am not loosing the A/C on my Jeep, its one of the reasons I bought it... The RX-7 dosent have A/C and I will not do that again... It's my DD, and that wont change for another 3 years or so.
So I need to look at welding shops for the regulator.
Don't gotta lose A/C for the York.Quote:

dana 60 out of an 89 F350 is kingpin correct?
and same truck should have sterling rear axle correct?
si
I thought it was balljoint, like tates. Actually, Tate's is balljoint and I thought it was that old, so take that as you will. Either way, would a non king pin be a deal breaker with the high strength axles and u joints these days?
Tate's was 92+
I run balljoint 60. Biggest disadvantage is the difficulty in doing crossover or high steer. I think there are some new high dollar BJ knuckles though now.Quote:

Bad on foolsize from my research look in my Bandit thread. Lots of opinions and tech on that shackle design because i looked into the same idea.
It's not street friendly at all, you will need some type of stabilizer more than likely if you plan on driving it safely down the blacktop...
